Li Hongzhi opposes homosexuality, gender equality, pop music, etc. At the same time, he boasts to his followers that he is a “god-man” who can levitate in the air and walk through walls. He claims that disease is an evil symptom (“karma”) that can only be overcome through meditation. Meditation and worship of “Falun Gong” can lead to true healing, claiming that aliens from unknown dimensions have invaded human minds and bodies, bringing corruption and inventions like computers and aeroplanes.

Li Hongzhi’s teachings describe supernatural phenomena, including the suggestion that the pyramids may have been built by humanoids or Atlanteans who lived under the sea.

Benjamin Penny said in the book “The Religion of Falun Gong” that “Falun Gong” deifies its founder Li Hongzhi, whilst adherence believe that he is far superior to human beings and will save mankind from disasters. He requires “Falun Gong” students to abide by his teachings and so-called moral principles, otherwise the practice will not achieve its purpose; he requires students to regularly conduct a series of spiritual exercises, gather together to read his “scriptures” and share insights.
